A celebration of literature, from fiction to poetry to non-fiction and biography, the festival features author readings, panel discussions, and book signings held in venues across historic and beautiful Newburyport, Massachusetts. I am so excited to be a part of the festival this year. Please mark your calendar and stay tuned for more details coming soon!
Please join me at WJOP (FM 96.3) for my chat with Mary Jacobsen on Joppa Radio! We'll discuss my memoir, Home, My Story of House and Personal Restoration--the story, the process for pulling the book together, and all the wonderful people who helped me along the way. We may also get into the fiction I'm crafting now and how each new story is coming together--or not(!) Seriously though, if you'd prefer to tune in after the live broadcast, catch the show later on YouTube (at https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=NCMHub) (and see what a goof I am on video) and on the website (at https://soundcloud.com/ncmhub/sets/morning-show-on-wjop). Thanks for tuning in!
Please join me in this quaint little village, in this sweet little bookstore for a chat about Home, and what brings us back. I'll speak with you about all the concepts of home, read a bit from my book, Home, My Story of House and Personal Restoration, and sign any copies. Watch here for an RSVP link since space will be limited. Thanks!
I'm thrilled to speak at this adorable store in the heart of Boxford, Massachusetts! West Village Provisions is a general Store and cafe with a heart and soul, serving breakfast and lunch, coffee, lattes, baked goods, and more. The store also carries essentials like milk, bread, and eggs, as well as groceries, gifts, local-themed items, and lots more. So come out for some inspiration on how even making little changes to our spaces helps restore not only our homes, but also our psyches! (And you can grab a few groceries if ya need 'em while you're there!)
I believe coming into peace with ourselves (i.e., being at home with ourselves) is the most liberating experience we can achieve. As you prepare for your Independence Day festivities, consider joining me on the evening of Tues., July 5 for my chat with Donna Seebo about finding the way home and much more. (To be honest, I'm a little nervous about this b/c Donna Seebo is an internationally recognized award-winning author and keynote speaker on mental and spiritual health. Yikes! I'm honored and humbled to be speaking with HER.) Can't listen to the live show? No worries. Watch for the recording that I'll post afterwards! Wish me luck!
Thanks to Joe Dibiase for chatting with me on the Local Pulse, a podcast of the Newburyport Daily News. If you/d like to listen, you can find the recording at the link posted here. Look for episode 403 recorded on Saturday, June 11, 2022. You can subscribe to the Local Pulse through iTunes, Google Play, and most other platforms.
